Also true for video downloads. I can reproduce this with now more than 40 downloads (audio and video),
Android 11 in Waydroid Container on VollaX with Ubuntu Touch
NewPipe version 25.0, older versions were ok,
Network speed is around 300 MBit / s, download starts with 2 - 3 MB / s and within seconds it's down to around 30 kB / s, eventually the download will finish after hour(s).
Don't know if related: the processing after finishing the download (in German: "Nachbearbeitung") also takes a very long time compared to previous versions.

I also have this issue.. but for video..

Some video downloads slow to a crawl at around 80%.
Takes ages, pausing and restarting helps, but had to be done multiple times as download stops downloading but is still active.
Post processing also is very show compared to normal.

Example url video downloaded at 480p:-

YouTube reverted the Range HTTP header throttling, so this issue doesn't need to be fixed. Closing as fixed.

Note: other ways of YouTube throttling downloads are different issues and most of them should be fixed by #9948.
